Cornet Technology PCU - Port Concentrator Unit

Cornet Technology's port concentrator units do more than cable management. The PCU operates as an interface between virtually any user equipment interface (DTE or DCE) and the digital matrix engine. Use the PCU to change system configurations, to execute A/B and sparing applications, and to perform modem eliminator and test/access functions. As a cable concentrator, use the PCU to reduce cable congestion passing up to 16 ports of user data over a single inter-chassis cable to a maximum of 250 feet from the switch engine.
